| Beschrijving voorzijde | The central field displays the ornate crowned coat of arms of Waldeck, featuring the distinctive star and eagle elements of the county's heraldry, surrounded by elaborate foliate and oak branch decoration. An ornate crested helmet surmounts the shield, rendered in the elaborate late-Renaissance style typical of early seventeenth-century German coinage. The entire device is enclosed within a rope-beaded inner circle, with the Latin legend running in the outer margin between the beaded border and the milled edge. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Waldeck's goldgulden production in this period was tied directly to the county's precarious finances during the opening years of the Thirty Years' War. The conflict, which erupted in 1618 with the Bohemian revolt, forced minor German territories into difficult alliances and fiscal improvisation. Christian and Wolrad IV ruled jointly — a dynastic arrangement common in small Rhenish and Westphalian counties to prevent partition — and their brief shared coinage reflects both the urgency of wartime liquidity and the county's stubborn insistence on its minting privileges against pressure from larger neighbors.
